"... three qualities are essential if the relationship with the child is to be alive and, in the true sense... The first is imagination, which transforms the intellectual content of one's teaching into a language of experience that speaks directly to the child's soul; the second is courage for the truth of world realities; and the third is a feeling of responsibility toward what is truly human in the children entrusted to our care."

Rudolf Steiner

to feel and to enliven imagination ...

to keep alive a child's inborn sense of wonder...

to truly serve our darling child...

reflections on experiencing anew daily life...

I come to recollect some fragments,

record some unrelated impressions...

It is what this IMPRESSION series is about ...

a visual note on a non-linear process of restoring of my paralyzed senses.

+++Just receive a book - THE SENSE OF WONDER by Rachel Carson.A book I'm waiting for ... inspiring writings and photographs.Some beautiful words from the book:+++" Arouse the emotions ... for the foundation of learning is in what we love.""A child's world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us that clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood. If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life, as an unfailing antidote against the boredom and disenchantments of later years, the sterile preoccupation with things that are artificial, the alienation from the sources of our strength."+++"... it is not half so important to know as to feel... Once the emotions have been aroused - a sense of the beautiful, the excitement of the new and the unknown, a feeling of sympathy, pity, admiration or love - then we wish for knowledge about the object of our emotional response. Once found, it has lasting meaning..."+++"...exploring that world that is old and ever new."+++6M baby iza+++Some days ago, I came across this wonderful book from apostby The habit of being. +++
